Cash Drawer

Auto Data supports one model of the Indiana Cash Drawer and the APG USB cash drawer. These drawers can only be purchased from Auto Data if they are to open automatically from your point of sale. If your drawer was purchased from another source, you will not be able to receive support for it from Auto Data.

Installation

No changes must be made to the software when installing your cash drawer. Once you have connected your drawer you can test it from the software:
1. Go to Home tab, followed by Miscellaneous.
2. Select Store Setup, Hardware Setup and then Cash Drawer.
3. Select either USB Cash Drawer or Indiana Cash Drawer (depending on your unit).
4. Click on the Test Cash Drawer button to pop the cash drawer.

If the drawer does not pop, check each connection and make sure that the drawer is un-locked (key hole straight-up).

APG Cash Drawer

Plug in USB cable to bottom of drawer and then other end to the back of your CPU.

Additional Troubleshooting for USB Drawer:
1. Plug the USB cable from the cash drawer to the computer.
2. Open the cash drawer.
3. Take the till out.
4. Push up on the cash drawer and pull it out(past the stopper on the bottom).
5. Use the following to determine the problem then continue:
• Blinking lights back and forth (like a rail road track) means the drawer has connection with the computer.
• Blinking lights at the same time means the drawer has power but no connection to the computer
• No blinking lights means the drawer is not getting power, check USB cable
6. Unscrew the 2 screws on the bottom of the Cash drawer.
7. Pull out the piece you just unscrewed
8. Make sure all connections are plugged correctly.
9. Re-screw the metal piece and test again.

If your cash drawer still does not open, call Auto Data.
